Nine-year-old Nylah gets her own mural after BLM poem
A giant mural of a nine-year-old girl has been painted on the side of a house after she went viral with a performance of a poem talking about being a young, black girl.
Nylah, from Cheltenham, made worldwide headlines in June 2020 when she stood up at a Black Lives Matter protest in Pitville Park.
Artists from the Cheltenham Paint Festival decided she deserved her own mural so have painted her picture on the side of a three-storey flat block in the town.
